O Produtor, tasting note published in April 10th 2021
This wine presents a sophisticated bouquet and a beautiful freshness. One feels the fusion of refined wood with delicate fruit, which fills the nose with hints of beeswax, caramel, nuts, dates and sweet spice. Creamy, with the right acidity and a long, polished finish.
To make this special blend, we started from the base of the 2007 Bastardo, the first of this variety vinified by Barbeito wines. Afterwards were mixed small quantities of much older Bastardo wines, which were stored in 5L demijohns and bottles. Some of these still belonging to the family collection. In April 2021, only 67 units were bottled, all individually numbered and signed.
Contains sulphites.

In the early years our company concentrated its efforts in the production of bottled wine. New concepts of marketing in the Madeira wine business were introduced as well as innovative packaging like the wickered flagon. The quality of our wines gained an excellent reputation among consumers which helped to strenghten Barbeito’s image in the international market. In 1991 another important change occurred in our company: for first time someone from our family became responsible for the making of the wine. In 1993, after two years learning the “secrets” of our wines’ style and character as well as studying modern techniques of wine making, Ricardo Freitas faced alone his first grape harvest. Thinking of the future, we began building a working team in which all members work under the same motto: produce good quality wines with a unique style.
Since then Vinhos Barbeito never stopped investing in the purchase of good quality grapes to make fine wines. To achieve that goal, year after year, we work to establish closer relationships with farmers.
